The Kaleidoscope has flashing lights inside and many moving parts.
[Ron Renken, 09/01/2015]This is the kind of kaleidoscope with fixed colored panels that spin -- so you spin it once and that's all there is to see. I was hoping it was the kind that had the liquid filled chamber with glitter and shapes floating in it so it would be ever-changing. But we were there and we can say we saw it. No need to see it again.
